Cinnamon Sugared Crockpot Almonds

I have a long list of recipes waiting to be eventually posted, but was so excited over this one, I decided to post it right away! I found this recipe for cinnamon sugared almonds that you can roast in your crock pot via Pinterest on this blog http://www.crockpot365.blogspot.com/. My picture is really bad and does not do the almonds justice. I roasted these Thanksgiving morning and was in such a hurry running around the kitchen, that this was the only quick pic I could get. These things are really addicting. I literally snacked on this things for 3 days straight, the recipe made a ton! In addition to being a super yummy snack, the aroma you get from the roasted almonds makes your whole house smell awesome! Definitely will be making these again!

You will need:

-cooking spray to coat inside of crockpot

-1 1/2 cup sugar

-3 tbsp cinnamon

-1/8 tsp kosher salt

-1 egg white

-1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract

-3 1/4 cups whole raw almonds (I bought two 16oz bags in the produce section...I used one full bag and about half of the other bag)

-foil or parchment paper

*Spray inside of crock pot with cooking spray so almonds don't stick

*In a small bowl combine sugar, cinnamon, and salt and set aside

*In a large mixing bowl, whisk together egg white and vanilla

*Add almonds to egg white mixture and toss to coat well

*Now add cinnamon mixture over almonds and toss to coat well

*Put almonds in crock pot and cover and cook on high for 2 hours...stir every 30 minutes or so to keep the almonds on the sides of the crockpot from sticking.

*When almonds are finished spread out on counter over foil or parchment paper to cool

**Mine didn't make it to the cooling stage...they went straight into a bowl and were served warm
